| How can I re-direct old links to my new site
Hi, Would someone be so kind to advise me please. I am moving my forum to a new domain name. Is there a way I can re-direct an old link to the new domain - ideally with the same link all that has changed is the domain name. E.g When someone clicks on a google link: www.myolddomain.com/forums/123-some-thread-title The old domain re-directs the surfer/spider to www.myNEWdomain.com/forums/123-some-thread-title Many thanks Benedict       |

Hello Benedict, sure, assuming that both domains are pointing to the same host, you can add the following in forums/.htaccess right after "RewriteEngine on" line: Quote:

However the new domain will be hosted on a different server/host :(

So, you should create .htaccess file in forums folder at your old host (old domain): Quote:
